A lot has happened over the past three years — and is scheduled to happen in 2025 — re. Long COVID and health equity around the country and in our state. BCRC is now moving into a phase of its work where we will be reaching out to MA legislators, DPH, and others to share our priorities for change for addressing Long COVID and improving our health care system, informed by you and LC providers, patients, and caregivers. We invite you to attend our next Table meeting on Friday, December 13th, 2024 from 4-5:30 pm to learn about the Long COVID work BCRC community partners are leading and other opportunities for engagement to advance health equity and recovery from Long COVID in research, community education, clinical care, or advocacy.
The meeting will be held over Zoom and facilitated by Jacqui Lindsay on Friday, December 13th from 4 - 5:30pm.
